Then I glide
as you smile
And on Icarus Wings
I fly!

Cathy Lennon – LATE WINNER believes in a thing called Love because:
One blood red rose, the emblem of love
Is the gift I give to you
A perfect example from God above
Of all that is precious and true
I wanted you to know just why
This is the gift I chose
Not just because it delights the eye
Or offers joy to the nose
Its furled petals clasp its bud so tight
As you cherish me in your arms
Its singleness, like your purpose
In protecting me from harm
Its stem, like you so true and straight
With thorns guarding what you hold dear
You are my champion of the rose
I have no need to fear
And of its hue, a deep, blood red
Why so? I will explain
The blood oath we made when we were wed
And would gladly make again
So I give to you this single bloom
And hope that you will see
How great my love, how deep my thanks
That God gave you to me.
THE END

Brian Jones – WINNER believes in a thing called Love because:
A rose shows your friendship,
A rose shows your heart.
A rose when you first meet,
A rose when you part.
The petals may fall,
but the feelings won’t fade,
A rose is emotion,
through beauty displayed.
